Scutaro and Lackey Make Good Team in Win (72-54)

Last night the Red Sox beat the Mariners 6-3 to open their three game series with the Mariners. John Lackey was very good, allowing 2 earned runs and 3 runs in 8 innings, including a season-high 10 strikeouts to earn the win, he is now 12-7/4.51/114 as this is his second straight win. Marco Scutaro (right) had a fantastic game, going 2-4 with 4 RBIs on two singles, he is now .276/7/44 as Scutaro has been pleasantly consistent this year. J.D. Drew (.261/16/58), Adrian Beltre (.325/23/86), and Jed Lowrie (.299/3/8) also went 2-4, along with an RBI for Drew. Tonight, Josh Beckett (3-3/6.67/74) and David Pauley (2-4/3.70/27) take the hill in Fenway. I hope the Sox don't disappoint in the game I see tonight!!!!
